On the heels of the first protests to hit the Iranian regime, Washington will turn the screw by negating financial benefits afforded by the nuclear deal. To this end, President Donald Trump will use the deadlines he faces as of next week for certifying the Iranian nuclear deal and approving sanctions waivers. This intent was indicated by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in an AP interview Friday, Jan. 5.

Since the president had demanded that the 2015 nuclear accord with Iran be either “fixed or cancelled,” Tillerson said the administration was working with lawmakers on legislation for making it more acceptable to the president. Last October, Trump reluctantly waived sanctions for another three months. However, since sanctions relief was not incorporated in the nuclear deal, which Iran signed with six world nations three years ago, the US may set them aside without being accused of non-compliance. The US may therefore certify the framework while emptying it of the economic benefits the Obama administration granted, which funneled hundreds of billions of dollars to the Iranian treasury.

This is what Tillerson meant by “fixing” rather than “cancelling” the nuclear accord. He is charged with reformulating the deal, while upholding the Trump policy for countering Iran’s regional aggression and continuing support for anti-regime protests. These steps are components of the drawn-out, staged war of attrition the Trump administration has begun orchestrating against the revolutionary Shiite regime in Tehran for the year of 2018.

The following steps are already in the pipeline, DEBKAfile reports:

President Trump may refrain this time from signing on to the sanction waivers, but may re-certify Iran’s compliance with the accord.

The US Treasury Department has meanwhile announced new sanctions targeting banks, financial entities and officials – whether involved in Iran’s missile program or propping up the Revolutionary Guard Corps and its actions to suppress popular dissent.

Washington will likewise target entities in the Middle East and beyond that serve Tehran and receive Iranian financial assistance and weapons. Examples are Lebanon, Hizballah, the Iraqi Shiite militias under Iranian command, Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad and others.

A broad US strategy is now in place for halting or slashing American aid programs to entities and governments which refuse to cooperate with the administration’s policy objectives.

Donald Trump’s original plan was to work closely with the Europeans on his drive against Iran. Since the European governments have not only opted out of cooperation but are flatly opposed to US support for the Iranian protesters, Washington is forging ahead on its own, without reference to any European capital.
Trump has thus scrapped one of the basic principles which gave birth to the nuclear accord, close cooperation between the US, Russia and the leading European powers.

The breakup of this transatlantic partnership confronts Russia’s Vladimir Putin with a dilemma. Lining up with Europe on Iran would place Moscow on a collision course with the Trump administration. That Moscow knows exactly what is at stake was evident in the remarks made by Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov on Jan. 4, in response to Washington’s call for a UN Security Council to discuss repression in Iran: “We warn the US against attempts to interfere in the internal affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran.” He also cautioned Washington against being “tempted to use the moment to raise new issues with regard to the JCPOA (the 2015 nuclear accord.)

The Iranian economy is on the brink of collapse because of their foreign ventures to prop up Hezbollah and Hamas, support of the terror regime in Syria, targeting of US soldiers in Iraq, provocative war in Yemen in conjunction with the Houthis, exporting terrorism around the world – like they did in Buenos Aires on the Israeli embassy in 1993 and on the US base in Lebanon in 1983 – all this has forced the people of Iran to live on 6k average per year while the religious extremists live in luxury and squirrel away billions – especially the Revolutionary Guard.

The US is smart to impose new restrictions and sanctions but I doubt they will get much cooperation from European and Russian whores who want business with the Islamic terror state of Iran. ThEU is quickly becoming a Muslim Brotherhood Union of sharia-compliant jihadist states. That means that the only ones upholding freedom in the world must stand together or fall as separate nations in the grip of leftists who would sell us out for their fantasies of climate change and hate for Trump instilled in them by CNN, PBS, CBC, BBC France 24, RT, DW, etc.

That is why it is important to keep ridding strongholds of munitions, bombs, missiles and supplies – it keeps the Iranian fascists pouring their funds into a bottomless pit.

Palestine??
Where is that?
In your moo-slim fantasy land!
Maybe Disneyworld will open a new pavillion called “Fakestine” in their Fantasyland area.
BTW the only occupiers of the British Mandate terratory are the arabs who were given trans-Jordan by the stupid Brits and their squatters who considered themselves as Syrians not “Palestinians”.
There is no palestine from the river to the sea
There never was and never
Will be!

Yes, of course they were “flying to somewhere” but not to a “Palestine” full of muslims. Investigate this and you will see quite clearly that Israel was called Palestine long before the muslims stole that identity from the Jewish people there in the early 60’s – all part of de-legitimizing Israel and part of the centuries-old jihad against the Jewish people and anybody else that’s not brainwashed by this satanic cult.

Iran cut most funding of Hamas when the group stabbed them in the back, siding with alCIAda & ISISrael against Assad in Syria. About the Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated group moved their HQ from Syria to Qatar.

The whole world knows who created ISISrael. Here’s a hint: the same people created alCIAda.

Happily for them, both groups of mercenaries find plenty of nubile comfort women from ApartheidIsrael’s military in the Stolen Golan, providing them with mercenary sperm depositories as they get PULVERIZED by the Syrian ARAB army, Hizbollah, and Persia’s military.

They (Iran) does now. In the Islamic world they always support enemies against greater enemies they hate even more. Hate is infinite and non-ending in the Islamic world. The Shia- Sunni conflict bloodbath is put on hold when the barbarians see opportunity to kill Jews – and that is what Iran is doing today vis-a-vis its support for the Hamas terrorists who are, in fact, a branch related to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Iran and countries like it have contributed virtually nothing to human advancement in the last 500 years, while American ingenuity has led the way in lengthening and improving life worldwide for 150 years. Time for the 7th century, shite talking, slithering 3rd world scum to know the order of rank, and to act accordingly, or taste the scourge of American steel.

History and geography according to Bagdad Bob. So, in which Koran sura does the word “Palestine” appear? It is so very important, Why is it not referenced repeatedly, like Israel, and children of Israel are? Guess the angel Gabriel and THE PROPHET didn’t have the “maps” Bagdad Bob does.

are you retarded murica has contributed nothing to advancement of the world .
It was a backwards agrian society until 1945 when they started importing european
talent and later from the world at large.
you muricans just stay in the boondocks you call america.

So you think that Syria and Iran have won when they just lost 500,000 children, women and men and millions who have been displaced and running into the arms od we “infidel” nations for safety and security and a life without Islamic hell? You certainly have a weird measure of success!!!

Do you like the Islamists whom you pretend support to kill themselves off? That is really dumb of you! I wonder if they know what kind of supporters they have in the likes of you who wish Muslims dead and enjoy seeing them killed of in a genocide by their own people with the help of Islamo-fascist nations such as Syria, Iran, Saudi, and a lot of help from Russia and the terror groups they sponsor.

The goal of alCIAda and ISISrael’s attack against Syria was to remove Assad.

When the invaders fail to achieve their objective and quit fighting, the war ends.

ApartheidIsrael said in 2006: “We are going to attack Lebanon and occupy the land south of the Litani River.” A few days later, they cried to their Uncle Sam, “Please, please, please go to our beloved creators at the UN and beg, beg, beg them to make Hizbollah stop firing rockets at our WEAK-A$$SED population!”

” A few days later, they cried to their Uncle Sam, “Please, please, please go to our beloved creators at the UN and beg, beg, beg them to make Hizbollah stop firing rockets at our WEAK-A$$SED population!”

@ “Antisemites Stole Palestine”,

Here is a reality check for you: it was the UN, the EU and the Bush Administration which put pressure on Israel to stop their operations in Lebanon. Otherwise, Hezbollah would have been destroyed at that time had Israel been left alone to complete what needed to be done.

Benny the fraudster: I thought that George Soros did 9/11. Maybe you “truthers” will have to re-focus your efforts and look into the connection between Soros, Obama, Clinton and John Kerry and their responsibility in organizing, financing recruiting and carrying out that complex take-down of the twin towers. You people-without-brains are really good at connecting the dots even when there are no dots to connect.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0f4w8iJmn08 demolitions expert Danny Jowenko telling it how it is….he was killed in a car crash a year or two after this……Building Seven was a controlled Demolition….suck it up boys….Deep deep trouble….

Maybe you two Nazis should go back to the Russia Today website and then you two idiots will agree with 100% of what the other putin loving terrorist pigs are saying.
Otherwise you will just continue to prove to the rest of us that aren’t indoctrinated why we don’t like libtards and Russia lovers.

Sanctions by the US …….show us your NUKES ISISrael……….hopefully there will be a security council emergency session on the DANGERS of ISISrael having NUKES……we do not want them falling into the hands of ISIS do we !!

Yes, watch and listen. Bagdad Bob has all the info you need on geography and history stated with extreme accuracy and precision. Only he stop cannot say where in the Koran the word “Palestine” appears. Any minute now, right Bagdad Bob?

“That is why it is important to keep ridding strongholds of munitions, bombs, missiles and supplies – it keeps the Iranian fascists pouring their funds into a bottomless pit.”

Let’s start with Hezbollah’s stockpile of around 100,000 missiles in southern Lebanon which Iran sent to them (the Israelis should fire bomb those sites) and see how much of the money Obama sent Iran last December it would take to replace them.
No wonder the people of Iran are chanting: “no to Syria”, “no to Hezbollah”, “no to Hamas”, “no to Yemen” and “no to Iraq” and also “where is the money” !

After daily reading of this site for the past few years, I am still saddened by the immature and offensive comments that are posted. Clearly there is more to growing up than just turning another year older. A good place to start is to keep the commandments given by God (the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob). Pray for the peace of Israel.

don’t read the ones you feel are insulting. We don’t need safe places here, like on our screwed up college campuses. Best thing to do is what you did. Tell them to find ALMIGHTY.
If the trolls from Russia and the libtards can post on here, then all should be able to.

Trump should truely force Germany to follow his policy of sancions against Iran, as Germany is still under the supremacy of the 4 powers which won ww2. The Germans often try to neglect this fact. Why are there still US bases in Germany?
Just force Merkel to enact sancitions against Iran and to force the German military industry to refrain from exporting weapons and technology to the bloody aiatolla regime of Iran.

@Daggerindan.
Son of sharmutha there was no “Palestine” of Arabs. Just terrorists who invented the term in order to raise money fir they terrorist business from evil Arab countries which got their money from us buying oil. In order to weak bloody. Arab countries we should improve on electric vehicles and green energy freeing us from the need of oil.
And as they don’t have enough water to grow veggies on their own they will perish soon when nearly nobody needs oil from them.
Lets dry out the Arabs by consuming less oil.

In which Koran sura appears the word “Palestine”? Israel, children of Israel, Torah, Moses, and Abraham appear more than once. When Woodrow Wilson called for the world’s peoples to come to Versailles in 1919 for the cause of self determination, Ho Chi Minh came for Vietnam; who came for “Palestine”? No one came, because the “Palestinian” “cause” and “people” had yet to be invented. That came after WWII, when Stalin was looking to expand worldwide communism, and Soviet spheres of influences through what was called “wars of national liberation”. So they scooped the child molesting cockroach Arafat out of the gutter, further imbued him with Jew hatred his Nazi loving “uncle” the Grand Mufti nurtured, then concocted a “movement” around him. That’s some of the great history, rich tradition and high pedigree of the “Palestinians”.

Roman maps circa 14 AD show that region of the empire as Judea. Roman maps circa 135 AD show it as Palestina. In the interim Rome had fought 3 wars with the Jews, and in the aftermath of the last one, it was decided to not only wipe the Jews’ name from the map, but to mock the Jews as well, by replacing the designation Judea with a bastardized form of the name of the Jews’ long vanquished nemeses, the Philistines.

You seem way ahead of the angel Gabriel and your prophet, Bagdad Bob. They repeatedly reference Israel and children of Israel in the Koran. Yet, they mention “Palestine” not once. How could that be, Bagdad Bob?

I know I type such gibberish but mm my tuches as you Jews say is so sore from those dozens of Shiia militia men passing me around like an Anal buffet. I can barely stand or think right now. Yeah you know me…

Attention… Baghdad Bob wannabe and Co., no US forces engaged with Iranians and Hezbollah in Syria. Both will get the one sided ass whuppin’ they have long had coming from America, now that politically correct sissy boy Bushes, Clintons and Obamas no longer set US policy.

lol……the laugh is on you dangerously dumb idiots…..ISISrael over 2000 nukes UNDECLARED…….the only country in the middle east with NUKES….NPT Iran have signed up to …….ISISrael would rather support ISIS….truly disgusting and the world knows this…….Venezuela just created its own crypto currency…..ways and means MFS !!! ……….your reign of TERROR is coming to an abrupt end……….ce la vie !!!

must be based on Israel regime demands. Btw the so called ‘benefit’ is Iranian assets/money hold by US Treasury.The US and Israel is very desparate and ugly lately. This time Iran after dozens country in the last century got robbed (Iraq,Libya and Syria recently.. their assets in US/UK and Europe has been confiscated/robbed after their countries destroyed).

The resistance within Fascist Iran is rising. Soon the ayatollahs will face justice for their Crimes Against the Persian people. Event he ayatollahs revolutionary gestapo will save them from the hangman’s noose.

Iran murders their own citizens in an attempt to stamp out progressive reforms and you call US and Israel desperate? Iranians fed up with terrorist funding at the expense of the population are going to be real happy when Iran has to spend more money propping up terrorists who used to be funded by the PA with US funds meant to appease the un-appeasable.

Now past US support for the Shah of Iran was a poor policy decision and the Iranian people were not wrong in their anger toward western nations (including the US) for this but at some point you have to move on. Instead they have now gone too far in the opposite direction. Funding worldwide terror, while at the time attempting to produce nuclear weapons is not going to cause nations around the world to love and embrace Iran. Iran has now become quite imperialistic in it’s attempts at middle east hegemony and it’s outward aggression towards it’s neighbors is what I would now call “ugly”.

So, where in the Koran does the word “Palestine” appear? Apparently, the angel Gabriel and Islam’s prophet didn’t think much of it. Still, deodorant challenged, slithering 3rd world scum think if they wish and conjur enough, or invoke sophomoric left wing rhetoric about “imperialism” enough, the word will magically appear in their holy book, right Bagdad Bob?

The Koran pre-dates the U.S. by about 1100 years, making it impossible for it to reference the U.S., Bagdad Bob. The Romans coined the term “Palestine” five centuries before the Koran, making it entirely possible for such a place to be mentioned, if it was oh so important, but apparently its authors thought it not quite as important as today’s Jew hating, deodorant challenged third world scum do.

It won’t exist too much longer with Islamist s pouring in across porous borders! Just as Europe no longer exists in the many no-go zones where rape gangs, drug dealers and sharia- pushers make life unbearable for citizens and impossible to apply secular law where Muslims reside in the EU.

No one is being promised rewards in paradise for blowing themselves up over the cause of salted meats, Bagdad Bob. But such rewards are being promised to those blowing themselves up for “Palestine”. So, for such a holy act, and holy cause, where is the authority in the holy book? Surely it is in there, right along with the Koran’s references to Israel, children of Israel, and LAND of Israel, is it not, Bagdad Bob?

Nonsense: ISISrael mercenaries get all the free luv they can handle from IDF comfort women, sent by AntiSemiteAvgidor to the StolenGolan to perform precisely that function.

To say nothing of all they Saud family camels they want.Nonsense: ISISrael mercenaries get all the free luv they can handle from IDF comfort women, sent by AntiSemiteAvgidor to the StolenGolan to perform precisely that function.

OK, so if President Trump and our Congress impose additional sanctions on Iran and entities doing business with Iran’s military complex, just how will Iran be able to continue their support for Palestinian violence, Hamas mortar projectiles and tunnel programs, Hezbollah missile programs, Yemen Shiite rebel missile programs, Assad’s chemical barrel bomb programs and the road link from Iran through Iraq and Syria to Lebanon?
And to make things worse for the regime controlling Iran, the people of Iran are actually demanding, among other things, their civil rights and economic opportunities which havn’t materialized in spite of the money the previous administration sent to them as a reward for signing Obama’s “legacy” nuclear deal!

There is A SAUDI BLOCKADE on Yemen…….and ISISrael blockaded on Gaza……….lol…..and Iran are supplying weapons…..lol…..you really are teh dumbest people on the planet……..your good at stealing and lying…….
